Sāgaradeva
PersonEin König, der angeblich das Meer ausgrub — offenbar dieselbe Gestalt wie Sāgara, der im Zorn die Erde so tief aushob, dass sie das Meer aufnahm, wonach der Ozean den Namen Sāgara erhielt.
A king said to have dug the ocean, evidently the same figure as Sāgara, whose anger led him to excavate the earth so deeply that it came to hold the sea, from which the ocean takes the name Sāgara.
